Comments on: Could a lot of Inspectable properties cause Flash to crash? http://joshblog.net/2005/11/30/could-a-lot-of-inspectable-properties-cause-flash-to-crash/ Just another WordPress site Wed, 16 May 2012 17:12:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Dustin http://joshblog.net/2005/11/30/could-a-lot-of-inspectable-properties-cause-flash-to-crash/#comment-57 Dustin Thu, 05 Jun 2008 15:16:33 +0000 http://lab.zeusdesign.net/?p=10#comment-57 This article is almost 2 years old now, but I'll post anyway... I've noticed this same thing in MX2004, 8, and now CS3. Flash mostly crashes for me when I check or uncheck the lock in the properties pane to (un)constrain the dimensions when resizing a movieclip. Doesn't do it from the Transform pane. After reading this, I did notice that it only happend when the Output panel is closed as well. This article is almost 2 years old now, but I’ll post anyway…

I have posted this bug to Macromedia, but nobody seemed to care. Its a big problem when you open a FLA with it already in it and the output is closed, as you'll have to open Flash first, then open the output panel, then open the Fla.

On one specific machine if I drag a component onto the stage from the component library flash will crash miserably, sometimes not right away, sometimes you have to click on it or move it before it crashes. Other machines it works perfectly fine when you add it to the stage. Did anyone ever find a solution? I actually noticed something very similar in flash 8.

You'll see in my followup post that I found the cause, and I was defininately on the right track when I guessed that it was the Inspectable meta-tag.
